  2. oh, PERFECT timing on the chef's hat pattern, thanks! I'm going to a Tube Station fancy dress party tomorrow night and was planning on whipping up one tomorrow! (I'm wearing dark grey trousers and top, hence, Baker Street!)

  4. So adorable! And what a coincidence -- just this morning I was thinking to myself that I had to order the same cupcake print to make little aprons for my girls!

  7. I am thrilled you posted this tutorial. I will be making two sets for my little friends who I build gingerbread houses with every Christmas. But I will use gingerbread men or gingerbread houses for a pattern. Thanks so much.

  12. I just made the apron using the same cupcake/dot fabric for my neice's bday next month. OMG!...it is just so cute!! I love making quilted items, usually steer clear of wearables but decided to give the tutorial a try. Super easy! I'm planning on making one for each neice & nephew bday this yr. Thank you for posting the pattern!

  13. Hmmm I tried in both Firefox and IE but couldn't download the hat pattern. I'll try from work tomorrow, perhaps a different system will be the charm :)

  14. Hello, thanks for such a wonderful pair of tutorials. I have several kids in my life who will now become the beneficiaries of your generosity (including my own 18 month old in a few years' time!).

    Re the chef's hat:
    I did a gathering stitch (stitch size four on your machine, same as a basting stitch) 1/2 inch in around the perimeter of the crown. I then gathered it all in to fit the band, by pulling and easing on the bobbin thread. It seemed an easier way to get an even result with the pleats.
    I used a 1/4" seam, but in hindsight, 1/2" would've been better.
    To attach band and crown, I went over that line of stitching/basting with a regular stitch. I sewed with the band side up, gathered side down.
    It worked really well,I love it so much. It looks much harder than it is.
    I found using this method I didn't need to bother with so many pins of matching ironed creases.
    BTW, this will not fit an adult head - or at least mine (my noggin is of Clive Owen proportions, and I'm a chick!). I'm not sure what age it would go to -- I think Joanna might have mentioned something about sizing on her blog.
    I hope this helps
    I'm now hanging out for Monday morning to buy some D-rings so I can finish.
    Oh and while I love the straps in teh original pattern, I also love Joanna's solution of using cream cotton webbing tape. that stuff just looks and feels so nice,and... i don't know,.... cheffy somehow!
    E-Lo

  22. I'm working on this one now, but why do I need 2 6x10 fabric pieces for the pocket? Seems like I only need one? I'm a beginner sewer, so I'm guessing I'm missing something!
